Re: [Vo]:unknown mechanism generates voltage in the powder cracks
Hi Mark I beleive that there are two or three closely connected effects that can be seen within Jerrys EZ work. The core effect is that water close to a charged surface has a slightly different structure, one of the characteristics od this water is that it excludes stuff, small particles, dye, and even protons, which is why the water slightly further away is acidic. You are right that this region can be 'pumped' by IR and will grow as a result, but it will exist even in a system in total thermal equilibrium. We also know that water at a surface has a similar property, and I beleive that this is why you get charge separation associated with rain drops, and I think that this is why a recent paper appears to have shown that it is water adsorbed on a surface that is key to the generation of static electricity when you rub things together http://scitation.aip.org/content/aip/journal/adva/1/2/10.1063/1.3592522 My hunch that it is the water adsorbed onto the surface of the flour granuals that is key to understanding how the charge separation occurs in the flour experiment.

Re: [Vo]:unknown mechanism generates voltage in the powder cracks
I wonder if the interaction between the flour and the container produces an voltage gradient at the surface which then provides the bias (symmetry breaking) that catalysies the creation of the formation of a macroscopic voltage gradient. I have mentioned Jerry Pollacks work in another reply on this thread. The action of a surface as an initial catylyst would mirror the way that significant potential gradiants (100s of mV not many volts however) can build up in water as a result of surface charge at the boundary.

Re: [Vo]:unknown mechanism generates voltage in the powder cracks
Harry, Good point and it aligns with dynamic casimir effect and possibly a form of crack propagation which is normally in a metals but may apply to the exotic hydrogen states we are discussing. It could also fit into Mills description of self catalyzing hydrino states and Peng Chens paper about catalytic action only occurring at openings and defects in nanotubes..if the already suppressed hydrogen forms an isotropy at one scale and then individual members then fall into a smaller crack in the geometry does their vacancy break the isotropy and initiate a crack propagatin as surrounding gas rushes in to fill the hole.. if this was normal physics we would expect pressure equalization but suppression of longer vacuum wavelengths is not normal physics..and more hydrogen in means more hydrogen out but IMHO there is no spatial bias as the suppression is in a relativistic direction and the exiting hydrogen is pressure driven out equally around the channel of highest suppression where the hydrogen is entering much like a steam heat system which uses 1 pipe where steam goes thru the pipe but water condenses and falls back down the inner walls of the pipe to return to the boiler.

In other words, instead of cracks in the lattice being important to excess heat, it might be the opening and closing of cracks in the distribution of hydrogen which contribute to excess heat. harry On Sun, Mar 9, 2014 at 11:28 PM, Axil Axil janap...@gmail.com wrote: http://www.scienceinschool.org/2009/issue12/fireballs I judge this to be important of the LENR scientist as follows: These patterns proved that the fireballs were indeed full of particles with an average radius of about 25 nm - i.e. they are nanoparticles. The data also showed that* the particles varied widely in size (very important)* (as is typical of aerosols) and that there were about 109particles per cubic centimetre. This makes the volume fraction of solid material (the ratio of volume of solid to total volume of space) in the fireball around 10-7 or 10-8. There was really only a very, very, small amount of matter in the cloud. The analysis also suggested that the particles had quite a rough surface: the scientists found the surface to have a fractal dimension of 2.6 (2.0 corresponds to a smooth 2D surface, On Sun, Mar 9, 2014 at 10:53 PM, Blaze Spinnaker blazespinna...@gmail.com wrote: Axil, I don't get it. Why not optimize this for power generation? Find a way to generate cracks in a nano material with a small amount of electricity. Presumably there is an optimal material, shape, context in terms of gases present that causes this, and a better method than just 'shifting a Tupperware container' This sounds like a revolutionary news article where the main stream press and a good university (Rutgers) is coming to terms with the reality something is happening there. My only question, is that is voltage being reported. What was the excess thermal heat? Going to email them.

In reply to Axil Axil's message of Sat, 8 Mar 2014 14:45:54 -0500: Hi, [snip] http://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-26462348 LENR has been talking about this for some time now. My take:- When two grains rub against one another, the distance between them is nm. If a slight charge imbalance develops due to friction, and the particles are insulators, they form a minute capacitor. If a crack in the powder forms, then the nm distance can increase to mm's. This deceases the capacitance enormously, and since the charge is fixed, the voltage rises accordingly. Regards, Robin van Spaandonk http://rvanspaa.freehostia.com/project.html

Re: [Vo]:unknown mechanism generates voltage in the powder cracks
The important message therefore is this: LENR is passing the fractal test - we live in a fractal universe, where a pattern at one scale, repeats at larger and smaller scales. Without that symmetry, the universe would break down, and LENR does not let us down here Gordon Docherty http://www.e-catworld.com/2014/03/the-earthquake-lightning-mystery-lenr-connection/ On Sat, Mar 8, 2014 at 11:45 AM, Axil Axil janap...@gmail.com wrote: http://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-26462348 LENR has been talking about this for some time now.
